Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen chapter-279-tenebrias-visit-2nd-release-of-destruction

"Congratulations."

Tenebria's hazy and faint avatar appeared with her unclear face showing a smile after Rin and Erix arrived in the Limitless Plane.

"You can visit the Unbound Star cosmic faction anytime now. I'll be waiting there," Tenebria said before a hexagonal medallion appeared before Rin and Erix.

"What's this?" Erix raised his eyebrows as he sensed a particular power within it.

"Strange. I can't inspect it," Rin was surprised.

"It's a special ticket back to your world," Tenebria chuckled. "Just save it for now and use it in the future by infusing Prana in it if you land in some crazy dimension or anywhere else to open a portal to your world."

"It sounds expensive that way," Erix grabbed it and saw an eccentric brown and dark silver pattern on the hexagonal medallion. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"It is, but it's not for me. Anyway, the reason I visited is not just for this."

Tenebria's expression turned somber. "There will be a competition among members of cosmic factions after four months."

"What?" Rin smacked her lips. "We don't want to stay here for four months more."

"Yeah," Erix nodded, his brows furrowed.

"Worry not," Tenebria smiled. "You don't need to stay in the Abyss to participate. You can return to your world when you are done with your business here."

"Initially, this was not how it was supposed to happen, and the competition was going to start in two months, but due to something happening in the background by a big power, the form of this competition will change massively."

"The branch leaders of cosmic factions here don't know that yet, but they'll know soon. Anyway, make sure to visit the Unbound Star cosmic faction and get yourself registered so you can get the next levels of Way of Unfettered spiritual art."

"I'll not waste more of your time here," Tenebria smiled. "All the best."

Tenebria's avatar vanished.

Rin and Erix put those things at the back of their mind and started practicing the 2nd release of destruction.

2nd release of destruction: Harrowing Spirit Crush.

"Let's do this. The formation layers to execute Hollow Crush felt crazy, but now..." Rin grinned. "Erix, we might be able to completely master Hollow Crush in this session."

Erix dazedly nodded as insights and understanding of Hollow Crush were constantly increasing as he observed it.

His hands twitched, and he couldn't help but try an execution.

"I'm going to try it," Erix stretched both of his arms forward, his palms open.

Only using Prana to execute, this more potent and purer form of energy coursed through his body and danced on his thoughts with ease, thanks to his S-rank magic affinity.

His arms showed eccentric patterns all over, but more prominent on his palms.

Rin observed, her eyes shining.

A second later, Erix slapped his palms together. His thumb raised and fingers clamped as he clapped.

The formations executed, energy transformed through them and released outward from the tiny space between his thumb and index finger, straight from the center of the palm.

*Roar!*

Harrowing Spirit Crush. This 2nd release was different for both Rin and Erix because it would take form according to their consciousness.

The roar that echoed belonged to a ferocious animal with ruthless eyes and sharp fangs.

A tiger, but only its head manifested.

That head manifested from the energy released through the gap after Erix clapped, bearing inside it a potent crushing power as its mouth wide opened and released a beam at the island below according to his control.

*BOOM!*

"Close…" Erix muttered as he saw the small island's part where the beam hit getting crushed to its atoms.

"That was still incomplete, but best so far," Rin grinned. "Let's perfect it."

The most challenging part was learning and arranging the complete formation, but since their Magic affinity reached S-rank, and they got an overall boost and new horizon of power unlocking after reaching Royal-order lifeform rank, the duo started making rapid progress in terms of learning the move.

After half an hour, Rin executed her Harrowing Spirit Crush, unleashing a wingless dragon as it roared and released a beam, causing massive crushing damage of pure destruction while the dragon shrank and vanished.

Erix also succeeded, manifesting a giant white tiger as it roared and caused pure crushing destruction before the tiger avatar vanished after doing its job.

Essentially, this Harrowing Spirit Crush required one to arrange formations such that upon execution, its energy would be compacted in a form to release destruction.

Rin's Harrowing Spirit form was a dragon, while Erix's Harrowing Spirit form was a tiger.

"If these four Release of Destruction are supposed to execute together for an ultimate attack, how will…" Rin was excited. "I want to learn the next two Releases as soon as possible."

Erix laughed and nodded, "Me too. Let's do it. We should be able to learn the next two as well."

"Yeah, we'll use the last twenty minutes for progressing in my Time and your Space affinities," Rin nodded with a grin. "Until then, let's tackle the Four Release of Destruction."

…

Inside the guest hall of the Palace…

"How long will I need to wait?" Addler asked, his brows creased.

The maid shook her head, "That is not up to us. The ancient pond has the will and it rejects people from entering according to that group's wish."

"Even the Elf Queen and King can't force themselves inside unless they get permission."

"But," the maid paused for a second before continuing, "that group leaves for several hours daily. When they leave, you can try to go there and ask for permission to go inside."

"For now, you can't because you won't get the permission."

"Can you tell me how long until they leave? Just a rough estimate is fine."

"Umm, I am not sure," the maid shook her head. "If you want to go out for some work, just give me your comm card information. I'll inform you once they leave."

"Alright."

…

Erix and Rin left Limitless Plane after they spent 1 hour and 30 minutes inside.

They managed to master the 2nd release and almost perfected the 3rd release's execution.

The progress regarding Rin's Time and Erix's Space was slow, but it was expected.

How could it be easy to comprehend and progress in elements that fast? Especially the principle elements like Time and Space.

After exiting Limitless Plane, Rin and Erix continued absorbing the pond's benefits as their Spirit stat gradually increased and dived back into the deep focus meditation to comprehend their elements.
